Security report for nsslglobal.com
NSSLGlobal · Technology · United Kingdom
Medium risk. 4 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, SSL/TLS and 1 other check.
NSSLGlobal is a well-established systems integrator specializing in satellite communications and IT management solutions primarily for maritime, government, defence, and enterprise sectors. With over 50 years of experience, the company offers a broad portfolio of services including cybersecurity, digitalisation, crew welfare, and safety solutions. The website reflects a professional and comprehensive business presence with clear market positioning and a strong focus on customer empowerment. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Hotjar, and LinkedIn Insight tags. It is well-optimized for SEO, mobile-friendly, and includes accessibility features. The site employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and uses reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection. However, explicit security headers are not visibly implemented, and no formal security policy or incident response contacts are published. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good practices such as encrypted connections, cookie consent mechanisms, and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The absence of a security.txt file and incident response information suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is strong with detailed policies and GDPR adherence. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and compliant with privacy regulations. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, and adding vulnerability disclosure information to further strengthen the security posture and trustworthiness.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.
GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.
Priority findings
4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
GDPR outside view
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
- High
No Cookie Policy found
GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage
What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes
- High
No Cookie Consent Banner found
GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies
What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit
- GDPR Art. 7
- ePrivacy Art. 5(3)
- NIST PT-4: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 PT-4: Consent
- High
SSL/TLS
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.
- High
Weak Protocols Supported
Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1
What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions
- CWE-327
- OWASP A04:2025
- ASVS V12.1.1
- RFC 8996
- RFC 7568
- Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: tls_versions TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3
- NIS2 21(2)(h)
- IR 2024/2690 9.2(b): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(b): Cryptography
- NIST SC-8(1): NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-8(1): Cryptographic Protection
- High
Network security
Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.
- High
High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP
Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer
What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication
- NIS2 21(2)(e)
- IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

Results by check
Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
How this score is calculated
The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted
- NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
- OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.
Findings that cap the score at 49
Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.
- The certificate is not trusted by browsers
- The website is not served over HTTPS
- A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
- The page loads a script from a compromised source
- The domain registration has expired
- SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain
Partial scans
When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Standards and sources
Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
